• How does atmospheric distillation affect lubricant production?
  • The treatment process by atmospheric distillation resulted in a product with specifications similar to the specifications of gas oil and it can be used as a heating fuel. Further treatment processes can be applied to the bottom product such as vacuum distillation to reuse it for production of lubricants again.
  • Can distillation oil be used as lubricant?
  • The distillation main product can be used as gas oil depending on its properties while the bottom product can be again utilized as lubricant base oil. It is well known that the lubricant (engine oil) loses its characteristics gradually depending on the work conditions and the initial properties of the oil itself that means its quality.
  • What is a Koehler automatic distillation analyzer?
  • The Koehler Automatic Distillation Analyzer is designed to perform optimal distillation analyses of gasolines, fuels, oils, solvents, aromatics, napthas, kerosenes, hydrocarbons, and other volatile products to ensure conformity to rigid quality control standards.
  • Does the Koehler automatic distillation analyzer 5000 series come with accessories?
  • Each Koehler Automatic Distillation Analyzer 5000 Series comes ready with the equipment, accessories and features as standard to properly run distillation groups 1 to 4 per ASTM D86 and related test specifications. No additional accessories are required.
  • Which type of engine oil is characterized along with a fresh sample?
  • Abstract: Two type of used engine oil (A and B)has been characterized along with a fresh sample of each type and hence the properties changes and degradation was observed. The samples (A and B) subjected to a batch atmospheric distillation process.
  • Does the automatic distillation analyzer 5000 series work with an external PC?
  • The Automatic Distillation Analyzer 5000 Series may be ordered for operation with an external PC (purchased separately) or may be ordered with a built-in PC, internal touch screen monitor, virtual keyboard and mouse. An easy-to-use Windows?-based PC communication software expands user capabilities for data analysis and unit control.
